CURRENT BEACH CONDITIONS

The current outdoor shade temperature (degrees Fahrenheit), relative humidity (%) and today's rainfall (inches) from our automated weather station on the beach are shown to the right.

The red and blue markers on the vertical scales indicate the maximum and minimum readings since midnight.

The wind speed and wind direction are shown here.

The red pointers indicate the 10 minute average for each figure and the numbers in the center of the wind speed rose show the current speed, the 10 minute average speed and the 10 minute peak gusts (all in mph)

The wind run shows the predominant directions from which the wind has been blowing for the past 24 hours.

The longest run is shown in miles at the bottom of the figure. It indicates how far a floating balloon would have been carried by that single steady breeze.

The barometric pressure is shown in millibars. The red pointers indicate the lowest and highest values since midnight (also shown numerically in the center of the rose: current pressure and the change in the past 3 hours)

Here you can see the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit with the latest reading at the right hand side of the graph.

The wind speed in m.p.h. is shown by the solid blue line. The gusts are indicated by the dots.

The solid blue line shows the wind direction.

In typical winter months, you will see the winds coming primarily from the north.

The atmospheric pressure changes (millibar).

The relative humidity variations

Here you see any rain activity. Our rainy season is primarily late August and September, though there can be sprinkles in December and January as cold Arctic fronts press south over California.
